The Greyhound.

Met an acquaintance while out walking Merlin today, we often stop for a chat with her but have never exchanged names, even more surprisingly, we don't know the names of her four hounds. This chap is a new acquisition, although he is a friendly beast he doesn’t get off the lead much as he’s not to good at coming back.

It is a little known fact among non-greyhound fanciers that this breed is quietly evolving a prehensile nose, this is clearly visible in the blip. Invite one into your house with the table set for a tea party, the dog will saunter up to the table and, with all four feet firmly planted on the ground, will raise its nose above the edge and that nose will proceed to mobilise, scanning the food for the choicest items.
